Although, they will accept the 15-round magazines used in the Model 915. Features include an alloy frame, nylon guide-rod, straight backstrap and one piece wrap-around grips.

About the Cartridge

This cartridge was introduced along with the Luger semi-automatic pistol. The pistol and cartridge was first adopted by the German Navy in 1904 and then by the German Army in 1908. This cartridge has since been adopted by the military of practically every non-Communist power. It has become the most popular and widely-used handgun cartridge in the world. Performance wise, the 9 mm cartridge has somewhat more power than the .38 Special but falls well short of the .357 Magnum.

910 compared to 915
By carledmund on 02 Nov 2019
The 910 was after Clinton-era law that limited magazine capacity. Nevertheless, the 910 can use either the supplied 10-round mags (dents in the side limit capacity) or the 915's 15-round magazines (or 17 rounders from 3rd party vendors). However, on the 910, S&W also changed to plastic for the guide rods and magazine catches and modified the barrel profile. The 915 has a locking lug on the barrel, but the 910 does not.
